So this MIT spin-off company Boston Dynamics engineers life-like robots that can have a variety of uses. Not sure what the practical use is for their latest creation: a robot cheetah that can run 28.3 mph, which is about a half-mile faster than Usain Bolt’s fastest time. So now that we have a robot that can actually chase after us, it’s only a matter of time before Boston Dynamics builds Skynet and destroys us all.

Can you think of a good practical use for this cheetah robot, besides world domination?
